Roberto Al Avila Bautista - FIDE Master Extraordinaire

Meet Roberto Al Avila Bautista, known in the digital chess realm as robertoalejandro10. A proud bearer of the esteemed FIDE Master title, Roberto is a chess warrior whose journey is as thrilling as a well-executed Sicilian Defense.

Since his blitz debut in 2017 with a modest rating of 1395, Roberto has rocketed through the ranks, reaching a blistering peak blitz rating of 2655 in May 2023 and a jaw-dropping bullet rating of 2832 as recently as May 2025! If speed chess were an Olympic sport, he’d definitely be gold medal material, armed with lightning-fast reflexes and an uncanny knack for tactical brilliance.

Roberto’s style is a delightful mix of patience and precision, boasting an average of nearly 89 moves per win—proving that he’s in it for the long haul rather than quick, lucky traps. But don’t be fooled; his comeback rate is a staggering 87.86%, showcasing a gladiator's spirit that’s ready to turn the tides even after losing material.

Known for his preference toward openings shrouded in mystery—like the elusive Top Secret variations—Roberto ensures his opponents never get comfortable. However, when he does reveal his cards, you’ll find him employing a respectable repertoire including the Nimzo-Indian, Benoni, and a crafty English Opening style, each armed with solid win ratios.

His tactical skills shine brightest during the day’s prime hour—the magical 10:00 AM—where his win rate peaks. Yes, even chess titans have their coffee-fueled hours! When not dazzling on the board, Roberto’s psychological resilience stands strong, with a modest tilt factor of 8, showing he’s far from a keyboard warrior meltdown.

Let’s not forget his relentless spirit in bullet chess—802 wins against nearly as many losses and 149 draws—Roberto’s battles are the stuff of chess lore (and mild headaches for his opponents). Whether wielding the English Opening’s symmetrical variations or diving headfirst into the hardened Accelerated Dragon, Roberto keeps fans on the edge of their seats.

In recent play, Roberto’s craftiness was on full display in an exciting blitz victory on May 27, 2025, where he gracefully dismantled ChessSwole in a strategic dance of positional play and timely rook maneuvers. And when defeat visits, like in his clash with jinbojinbo, one can bet it’s been a battle filled with complex ideas and vigorous fighting, not a dull surrender!

Roberto Al Avila Bautista is more than just a player; he's a chess storyteller. Each game is a chapter, filled with suspense, strategy, and the occasional surprise twist. The chessboard is his stage, and the pieces dance to his cunning commands.

So, if you find yourself face-to-face with robertoalejandro10, prepare for a match that’s equal parts chess masterclass and rollercoaster ride. Don't blink—you might just miss the move that seals your fate!

Recent Game Strengths

Roberto, your recent games show solid fundamentals with good control in the center and active piece play. You execute strong strategic plans, especially in open positions, as seen in your wins using openings like the English Opening: Anglo-Indian Defense and the Amazon Attack: Siberian Attack. Your drive to exchange into advantageous endgames and capitalize on opponent inaccuracies is evident.

  • Proactive use of pressure moves in the midgame
  • Smooth transitions from opening to middle game
  • Strong endgame technique leading to multiple resignations by opponents

Areas for Improvement

While your win rate is strong, some recurring issues can be addressed to raise your level further:

  • Handling opponent tactics: Recent losses by checkmate or sudden attacks point to occasional underestimations of tactical threats. Continue improving your tactical vision and double-check all potential opponent moves before committing.
  • Opening variety and defenses: Some openings like the English Opening: Agincourt Defense show a weaker win rate near 40%. Diversifying or refining your approach in these less successful openings could help increase consistency.
  • Endgame awareness: Avoiding mate and optimizing piece coordination in complex endgames remain critical — practice defensive techniques and recognize opponent mating patterns quickly.
  • Time management: In blitz, effective clock management can prevent rushed mistakes in critical moments. Balancing speed and precision will improve results.

Development Plan

To build on your consistent upward trajectory and tackle the challenges above, consider the following:

  • Regular tactical puzzles focusing on common motifs such as pins, forks, and discovered attacks.
  • Review games with a coach or engine to identify subtle inaccuracies in opening choices and transition phases.
  • Practice specific defensive endgame scenarios and learn key techniques to save difficult positions.
  • Maintain your opening repertoire but explore alternatives or deepen your knowledge in lines with below-average win rates, like the English Opening: Agincourt Defense.
  • Set aside time for slower games occasionally to deepen strategic understanding and reduce blunders in blitz.

Encouragement & Outlook

Your rating trend slopes and recent rating gains over three and six months highlight your strong improvement curve. The small one-month rating dip is temporary and your steady progress shows your ability to learn and adapt.

Focus on refining your tactical defenses and time management to convert your solid foundations into more consistent wins. With your dedicated approach and advanced understanding, continuing this path will see you break further rating barriers soon.
